i hate when liberals pull shit like that. i know part of it is because its a sensitive topic for me but you'd think we would have less credentialism when the two worst presidents of the last 50 years went to fucking yale and wharton.

Markwayne Mullin is awful and corrupt for many reasons.

Not having a college degree is not one of them.

I know plenty of people W/O degrees who have more moral backbone, smarts, common sense, and compassion than at least half of Congress. Mullin isn't one, but not bc he did not graduate college.
